Cutting Cost Without Compromise

We all love our horses and want the very best for them. But sometimes even the most caring horse owners can find themselves in financial difficulties.

As the UK’s largest horse charity, we receive many calls each month from horse owners seeking alternative homes for their animals. We do our best to help, but with over one million horses and donkeys in the UK, resources and the spaces for rehoming are limited.

No-one wants to be parted from their horses, especially if distressing situations can be avoided with some sound advice and thoughtful planning - which is why you'll find this National Equine Welfare Council leaflet (pdf) really helpful.

It will show you how to plan for the future and reduce costs without compromising your horse’s welfare.

It will also tell you what to do if the worst comes to the worst and you think you can no longer afford to care for your horse.
